Question

A well-thrown ball is caught in a well-padded mitt. If the deceleration of the ball is $2.10 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2},$ and 1.85 $\mathrm{ms}$ $\left(1 \mathrm{ms}=10^{-3} \mathrm{s}\right)$ elapses from the time the ball first touches the mitt until it stops, what was the initial velocity of the ball?

Step 1

Given: Deceleration of the ball, $a = 2.10 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ Time taken for the ball to stop, $t = 1.85 \mathrm{ms} = 1.85 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{s}$ Show more…
